MSU BILLINGS NEWS SERVICES — Paralegals interested in enhancing their resumes, increasing their earning potential
and reaming competitive in a tight job market can do so with a course offered through
the Montana State University Billings College of Professional Studies and Lifelong
Learning.

Recent numbers from the U.S. Department of Labor indicate that the paralegal profession
will continue to grow in 2009 by 22 percent. Other reports indicate that the paralegal
profession is one of a few recession-proof careers.

These legal-education courses specifically focus on providing students with the most
affordable, flexible, and effective legal education possible to achieve their academic
goals in a short time frame. Our paralegal and advanced paralegal courses have been
developed by qualified attorneys and meet the highest standards in the U.S. for working
paralegals.
